Sailing with an Beneteau Oceanis boat of my friend Michele TORRE (very important lawyer in Sassari city) and his wife Lia CASU and our family with babies on Sardinia sea in august 2006. Passing Bonifacio strait between Sardinia and Corse islands we must navigate in 60 knots of wind gusts. At the end of video clip you can see Tatoosh, the superyacht of Paul Allen (Microsoft) moored in a fantastic bay along cost of Sardinia island.

you are most irresponsible sir, as the captain you should know that no one should be on deck without a pdf in those conditions, particularly children, if you loose one overboard they as good as dead. Once again, people do not need a licence to operate a boat, what a shame

Haha. Xcuse me. Have you ever seen 60 knots??? At 30 knots of wind, there is a lot of horizontal foam. And waves are at least 3 meter high, or, if you are in an enclosed area, they are lower but very short and hard, so that you get a bumpsy, choppy journey. If I see the flag, it might have been about 20-25 Knots.
AT 60 knots of wind, you really have a TOTALLY other aspect. You would not be smiling and laying at ease at the deck. You would have to rope yourself tight.

@sergiocasali Magari per evitare errate interpretazioni conveniva dare un titolo meno "appariscente"..

60 knots??? this is about 5 BF

A 60 knot gust would knock the boat flat with the amount of sail you had up. I think your instruments are over reading! :D
-
60 knots! Not even close, perhaps you may have had a few gusts but nothing over 25 knots, Mainly 18 to 20, great sailing breese. Bring it on!

Unfortunately I have had experience seling with 48 knots of wind and sea state 6. I can guarantee that my 38 ft boat after tightening the sails (dry) was still running at 6 knots

Ma chi ti conosce, chi ti ha chiesto consigli. Ma chi sei? Provincialotto?
Ma guarda questo.
Se andassi a leggerti i precedenti post leggeresti, in inglese, la spiegazione di tutti quei nodi segnati per errore dallo strumento.
Come sei messo con l'inglese, cittadino?
Ma che tipo....
Abbello.

The waves should be became larger after a few hours, when the fetch was bigger.
The winds was calm when we started sailing, and after 30 minute became from 50-60 kts. When it raised we were shelterd form a small isle and the sea was flat. I'm not putted the video for a video awards or to obtain a personal bargain for me.
Also, probably we were experiecing a windshear phenomenal and at the sea level we had a wind intensity dfferent from the masthead where the windforce was read. bye

Does not seem to be 60 knots, but still nice video.

It would be not seem, but the Raymarine Wind instrument said there were between 50 and 60 knots of wind and beyond, but the sea was enough calm and there wasnt big waves because there wasnt lot of fetch. The instrument was pointing always around 60 kts but I dont know if readings was inaccurate, but I assure the wind was very strong and I had only a very small jib (unfurled) on the bow and the boat speed was always 8-10.

60 knots - never! ( even Raymarine Wind instruments ( and especially them!!!! )) often dont show the real wind. and as a lawyer your friend should have told you, that it is absolutly!!!! without any responsibility to take a trip with childeren without lifebelts! Hope you arrived safe in the next harbour!

The children was get out the internal of the boat only when the sea became flat and we are sheltered fom a small isle.
They were in the cockpit wothout risk and watched by my wife. It wasn't neessary lifebelts for a few minute the were and in a flat sea condition.
infact we were arrived without any kind of trouble or injure.
We aren't been irresponsible in that situation.
